Abstract
Based on a plurality of signals received via a plurality of single-input, multiple-output (SIMO) channels, a plurality of sets of rake coefficients in a multiple-antenna transceiver are adapted. Each signal of the plurality of signals corresponds to a single signal transmitted by a single-antenna transceiver, and each set of the adapted sets of rake coefficients corresponds to an estimate of a respective one of the plurality of SIMO channels. According to at least one selection criterion, one coefficient from each set of the plurality of sets of rake coefficients is selected. A transmit steering vector is generated based on the selected coefficients, and the transmit steering vector is applied to a signal to be transmitted by the multiple-antenna transceiver to the single-antenna transceiver.
